Olympics

Rowing has been part of the Olympic program since 1896, and is one of Canada’s most successful summer Olympic sports. At the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, Lindsay Jennerich and Patricia Obee won a silver medal in the lightweight women's double sculls. In London 2012, Canada won two silver medals (men's and women's eight) and won four medals - one gold, one silver and two bronze - at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

The next Olympic Summer Games is in Tokyo, Japan from July 24 to August 9, 2020. For more information, please visit the Games' official website.
